Method

  1. Lay the pork steaks between two sheets of cling film or baking paper and bash with a rolling pin until approx 1cm thick. Whizz the bread in a food processor to make breadcrumbs. Add the sage and pulse a few more times to roughly chop the leaves. Mix in the Parmesan and spread over a large plate. Season with black pepper.
  2. One by one, dip each steak into the beaten egg, allow the excess to drip off, then press into the breadcrumb mix on both sides. Set aside.
  3. Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and fry the steaks for 3-4 mins on each side until cooked through. Meanwhile, mix the cabbage, buttermilk or yogurt and apple, then season. Serve the steaks with the coleslaw and a lemon wedge, if using, for squeezing over.

    We really enjoyed this meal. I added some carrot and red onion to the coleslaw to make it ia bit more interesting.

    Easy to preopare and much tastier than store bought schnitzel, added carrots to the coleslaw which my youngest scoffed. Would make again.

    Found this a bit bland even though I added extra parmesan to the breadcrumbs and garlic and seasoning to the egg. Also be careful not to cover the pork in too thick a layer of breadbrumbs as this makes it harder to cook the pork thoroughly in the time suggested.

    I thought the pork was top notch. Really like the coating. I found the coleslaw a little bland, so added some carrot julienne and 1 and a half tablespoons of mayo and it was great.

    Followed the recipe for the pork steaks for 4 even though there was only 2 of us - now have 2 in the freezer for another day. Thoroughly enjoyed them. Didn't try the coleslaw we had it with salsa potatoes and sweetcorn with peppers. Not sure how long these are going to stay in the freezer - yummy.

    This dish was ruined by the awful coleslaw which was sour and bland. My kids refused to eat it and asked why I hadn't made my usual one! I expected more from a 5 star rated dish. I will tread with caution on this web-site now.

    4 stars because I only made the pork, not the coleslaw. The pork was delicious and crispy and I will definitely be making it again!
